I found no warning that this music, allegedly in C, actually goes from C to F to Bb to Eb and segues on the piano without noting chords. I purchased this to save myself work for my ukulele group. My work is just beginning.

This medley is great to play at patriotic events. My only problem with the piece is that the entire song is chords. Once you bring out the dynamics it sounds nice, and I loved performing this piece. I would just work on the flow when you play it, to make sure it doesnt sound like pounding chords the entire time.
